Shouldn't Dahak also be possible for worshippers of all evil dragon alignments?

[CorvusMask]

Apsu was errata'd to cover all good dragon alignments, so shouldn't Dahak also allow LE and NE worshippers? :D I mean he DOES live in Hell because Asmodeus gave him place there, so it would make sense to include LE at least

When did the errata take place, though I think that both would make sense as they are the only draconic gods on Golarion.

One of his edicts is "destroy things at your whim." That sounds pretty solidly CE to me.

And dragons don't really worship Dahak, so much as they hope he doesn't take an interest in them. It's mostly non-draconic species who worship Dahak IIRC, because they aren't as keenly aware how much he likes to torment and kill dragons of all kinds.

Hey I don't disagree on him being CE, but technically speaking nothing prevents any evil god giving good aligned followers powers if they wanted to :p (it makes hard worshipping them and staying as good of course)

IIRC it is not a matter of the deity "wanting to", otherwise we would still have LN Asmodeans. It is more your alignment being sufficiently in synch with the deity's creed (ie within the allowed alignments) to channel their divine energy.

And any Dragon can worship Dahak. It is only the CE ones who can become his Champions and Clerics though.

It is one of those things where symmetry isn't necessarily the best design or writing goal.

If you apply it to other creatures that aren't subtyped by their alignments (blue dragons being lawful evil, white dragons being chaotic evil, etc), it illustrates how this asymmetry actually makes a lot of sense - with orcs for example, in some settings they where originally created by an evil deity, but orcs of other alignments than evil usually don't worship said evil deity - the same goes for dragons - he might be the evil dragon god, but the lawful evil dragons have strayed culturally from whatever it is he stands for.

And, as other people have said - the alignment restrictions on deities are just for classes like champion or cleric, where to gain those powers you need to be really closely aligned with the core essence of what that deity stands for, hence having limitations on your alignment. Other worshipers can be of any alignment, they just don't get special powers because their values aren't synced up enough.

Eeeh, still saying that being located in hell is good enough for LE worshippers, we can skip on NE worshippers ;D (yeah logically speaking NE worshippers without LE worshippers might make more sense)
